Tea by the Lilac Tree


Welcome Teacup Lovers to

"Tea by the Lilac Tree!"


It is such a beautiful April day at the cottage and the lilacs are in bloom so why not have an early outdoor teatime?





The pretty teacups I would like to share today are both Hammersley.














I am so eager for many more outdoor tea times!




Thank you for visiting me today for

"Tea by the Lilac Tree!"


See you next week!
Karen

  2. I love your lilac bushes. Here they are just starting to bud out. Hopefully soon they will be full of flowers. You have some pretty bouquets to enjoy. The grass is so green and your outdoor tea party is a wonderful setting. You have shared two very pretty tea cups and a pretty tea pot too. Thanks for sharing.

  9. Oh my, what a pretty post, Karen! I can almost smell those lilacs. They look gorgeous in the urn. Your china is lovely and I love the milk glass pieces too. An absolutely delightful tea outside! You are blessed to have that stream on your property. What a splendid place to enjoy a cup of tea! Thanks for joining me today.

    Blessings,

  10. What a gorgeous setting for tea! I could stay all day and enjoy the tea. It's so wonderful to see lilacs again as mine are all gone and it's back to being a normal green tree. I like your deep purple lilac. I don't see that color here too often in lilacs. I'm sure the scent is heavenly. Beautiful dainty floral teacups too make your table so special. Thanks for hosting! ~Nora

    The urn of lilacs is amazing and I can imagine their fragrance floating in the air.
